Soft tissue coverage of combat wounds.
Warfare-related open fractures with large soft tissue defects create a significant reconstructive challenge. The objective of this article is to review current and evolving treatment strategies for soft tissue coverage of warfare-induced extremity wounds. A review of previously published literature and current data evaluating combat-injured personnel requiring extremity flap reconstruction perf...
متن کاملEffectiveness of the Gastrocsoleous Flap for Coverage of Soft Tissue Defects in Leg with Emphasis on the Distal Third
Background: The standard methods for reconstruction of soft tissue defects in the leg include gastrocnemius flap for proximal third defects, soleus flap for middle third and free flap in the distal third. However, there are problems with the use of free flap, like increased operative time, damage of major vessels and the need for experienced microsurgeon. Mathods: This prospective study was und...

متن کاملSoft tissue coverage of the upper extremity: an overview.
Prehension is a complex function of the hand that gives it mechanical precision combined with a standard sensory pattern. The priority in soft tissue reconstruction for the upper extremity is to restore function. Significant injury to the upper extremity may result after trauma because of various etiologies. The timing and choice of soft tissue coverage for upper extremity defects warrant speci...
متن کاملSoft Tissue Coverage of the Lower Limb following Oncological Surgery
The treatment of lower limb tumors has been shifted by advancements in adjuvant treatment protocols and microsurgical reconstruction from limb amputation to limb salvage. Standard approaches include oncological surgery by a multidisciplinary team in terms of limb sparing followed by soft tissue reconstruction and adjuvant therapy when indicated. For the development of a comprehensive surgical p...
